A nice double on the day for the Griffiths camp. Original quote: "Taverer: Has been running well of late and enjoying his racing - 5th run since the 12th of April. But no issues on that front as seems to thrive on his racing. Back on the turf here, but will love the track, trip…

Plugged on well to take second at 7/1. Original quote: "Riptide: Ran a good race to be third last time out. Chepstow is not a track that usually brings out the best in him but this doesn't look a great race so hopefully won't be too far away."

Rounded off a top night for Scott at Brighton. Original quote: "Sir Geoffrey - Still going strong at 11 and ran really well on his return run to be 6th of 12 at Catterick last time. Down a pound for that and Paddy takes off another 5lbs so that helps. 139th career run, but first…

Stayed on really well up the Brighton hill. Original quote: "Albert Boy - Been running at Southwell recently over a variety of different trips. Back on the turf on a nice mark and Josie Gordon a plus in the saddle. Any rain would be a plus as won on heavy in the past, but still…

Plugged on well to take third. Original quote: "Go On Gal has been a model of consistency but failed to get the trip last run, she has run well at Brighton and providing she has not gone too high in the handicap will have an e/w chance again."

Another top run from this old-boy! Original quote: "Dr Red Eye - Still going at the age of 9. Won four runs back at Wolverhampton, but failed to build on that. Returns to the turf here (has run well at the track before) on a very fair mark (50) based on old form - was…

Stayed on really well up the hill to take second .......and almost won it!! Original quote: "Spirit of Sarwan has been very consistent and has won at Brighton, the race is over 7f and would have been better over 1m but I am sure he will stay on well up the hill and should be…

Another top win for Simon's old-timer! Original quote: "Forceful Appeal - Was a fantastic winner last time at Lingfield on AW Champions Day. This multiple winner deserves a break, but he seems fresh and well every day so we will give him one go to break his duck on turf off a much lower mark…

Nice call from Mick and another nice TQ View winner. Original quote: "Cryptonite: Has done well without winning since joining us last year from the Charlie Fellowes team. Only 4th run for us, but first time into a handicap here is a big help. Looks on a nice opening mark and first run on the…

Spot-on from Charlie - second at 10/1! Original quote: "Prince Of Arran: Is in great form and looks fantastic. Despite having a higher AW mark I'm certain he is just as good, if not better, on the turf. Ascot and Kempton form ties in very closely so the track should suit perfectly and he is…

Dead-heated for first - but still a nice return at 5/1! Original quote: "Pour L'Amour rarely runs a bad race and really deserves to pick up a race of this level. Her consistancy means she probably doesn't have much in-hand in terms of her handicap mark though, but Charlie Bennett's 5lb claim will help a…

Top each-way call from Mick! Original quote: "Indigo Princess: Back in trip here after disappointing us over 1m2f last time. Was slowly away that day and the time before at Newcastle took a hold, so hoping that over this 7f trip they will go a bit quicker for her. Yet to win from 10 races,…

Plugged on well to take third. Original quote: "Uphold: Amateur riders' race, but we've a decent jockey on so that helps. Good draw in stall 2 as well, plus a past course winner. The horse is well and dropped to a handy mark. Looks a dire race so that also helps and would not be…

Another solid each-way run from Mick's horse. Original quote: "Brigadoon - On Fire looks the one we've all got to beat, but our horse rarely runs a bad race and looks a good each-way alternative. Been running well and placed many times recently on the AW - but has won 6 times on the turf…

Well-backed and the money was right - nice call from Mick. Original quote: "Classic Pursuit: Only fourth run for us - has done better than his finishing positions indicate as only beaten 2,3 & 4 lengths each time. Dropped in class here helps and we are also down 4lbs from last time. Trying the first-time…

It doesn't get much better than this!! Original quote: "Zubaidah: The horse is well - only second run for us and much better than her debut outing for us. Stepping her up in trip here as found 1m a bit on the sharp side last time and we've got the tongue-tie and cheekpieces on today…

Went down just a neck, but e/w money still landed! Original quote: "Palmerston - A much improved second last time out at Redcar over this trip. Only a pound higher so has been given every chance by the handicapper and draw 3 looks perfect. 2 or 3 others that head here in-form but the horse…

A much improved run - hopefully Tim's horse can kick on now! Original quote: "Winido - Been poor of late so hard to get too excited, but we are trying the first time tongue-tie here. Also first run in a handicap so that should help and George claims a handy 8lbs. A dire race too…

Only just touched-off, but each-way money landed! Original quote: "Viva Verglas - Very competitive race, but the horse has been running well of late and despite coming fourth that last twice has not been beaten far. Same mark, but Toby claims a handy 5lbs - hoping for a solid each-way run."

Another decent win for Jamie's horse. Original quote: "Our Three Sons - Won well last time out and deserved it having been very consistent before that. Running with a penalty so will be harder here, but he's come out of that race well and is in top form. If anything he might improve for the…
